So our hiatus turned out to be longer than any of us expected. I guess that's just how grief works. The process is different for everyone. But rather than stay on the shores hopelessly staring out at the murky water, I thought I'd dip my toes in and see if anyone wants to hold hands and jump off the bridge with me. Make sure you yell Cowabunga or Big Fat Pickles or some other crazy sounding phrase. Why? *shrug* Just seems like we oughta. Everything's better when you add a hint of crazy into the mix!

So what have I been up to? Oh! I'm so glad you asked. Well, I've been very busy with life and stuff. Oh, you want me to be more specific? I can do that!

In November I participated in National Novel Writing Month and I'm just now finishing that manuscript. I love it. I'm so ready to write "The End" and take the plunge. Meaning? Send it out. See if I get any bites.

Of course I'm still working hard at the day job and handling my family business. Meaning? Being a mom and wife.

What have I been up to? Taking better care of myself. Oh, and, after writing lots of proposal and withstanding multiple rejections, I sold two very different series to two NYC house. St. Martins Press and NAL (Penguin). So presently I'm writing my buns off. Who's next??

I wish I had something better to say but unfortunately I've been trying my best to take care of my wife who developed a pressure sore on her heel a week before Christmas last year.

It really could be much worse but all things considered enough is enough.

Oh yeah, and I came up with yet another idea for a story that I started working on that quickly stalled. That's about all I have except to say that I -really- missed this. Next?

As you know, I've had my share of grief, too, Elle. Three of my grandparents have died in the last two years - with my grandma passing away just last week. I've discovered that there is no right way or wrong way to grieve. The process is apparently different for each person. Some people hold it in more, other's are more apt to be expressive.

I'm trying to write on my WIP, but I have to admit it's a toughy. Also, I need to polish up my finished YA. Shew, so much work...
